Synopsis

Kyouya Hashiba, 28, faces career setbacks after a stalled internship in a game studio forces him to return home and question past choices. Haunted by envy of the celebrated "Platinum Generation" and regretting his attendance at a conventional university instead of an arts school, he believes his chances are gone—until he wakes up ten years earlier. Seizing the unexpected opportunity, Kyouya opts for the Oonaka University of Art, where he reconnects with Eiko Kawasegawa, who in his original timeline had employed him as an intern, and meets the peers who will become his roommates and creative peers: Aki Shino, a talented but inconsistent artist; Nanako Kogure, an aspiring singer and actress; and Tsurayuki Rokuonji, a naturally gifted writer. As they collaborate on projects and support one another’s growth, Kyouya and his friends gradually approach their creative potential and reshape their futures toward the ambitions they longed for.
